And the sun continues to reveal its ghostly memories upon the surface of the foams. Upon seeing these new images, I contemplated two decisive temporal aspects in their materiality: provoking and interrupting the process. When you, through vectors, provoke sunlight to interact with the densities of the foam, I believe your attention shifts to the material affected, for it is that which will indicate the time of things. To understand it is to know when to interrupt the process—and perhaps save it from an uncertain future. Every symbiosis multiplies the possibilities for creation, always leaving some questions accompanied by indecipherable answers. And thus, I venture to say that these traces on the polyurethane skin will undoubtedly endure over time. I imagine that during those 28 days of sun exposure, at the end of the afternoon—when the sun began to hide at the horizon—the progression of hues and contrasts that shape these impressions on the foam became noticeable..
